Does this mouse actually have a button in the middle, or does it just count the clickable scroll wheel as its third button?

Hi Spazicle. Yes, it counts the scroll wheel as the 3rd button because you can actually press on it and it will do its job of opening another tab or closing a tab.

No it does not...but it does have a scroll RING which serves like to scroll wheel but no click on it.

If you count the scroller wheel in the middle, then yes it has three buttons. You can click the scroller wheel and make the scroll icon come up if that is what you are looking for.

Yes, it acts like a scroll button. It's a little temperamental, IMHO...doesn't always respond the way I'd like.

Five button design... a forward, back, left, right and "DPI" button - plus, you have the scroll wheel. All in all, pretty comfortable and well priced (I got mine for $25.99) compared to other vertical mice that go for between $40-$90.

It has 2 on the left side, 1 left mouse button, 1 right mouse button, and the scroll wheel can be clicked in. There is also a dpi changer behind the scroll wheel, Idk if you can change that to whatever you want though.

The mouse is completely programmable under Linux. I run this on startup, the smaller left button activates muti directional scroll wheel and the two bigger buttons pressed together emulate the middle button: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11690808/

I'm not sure What do you mean by "scroll wheel click and drag", butThis mouse doesn't have middle click, but only scroll (both horizontal and vertical), so obviously it's not possible to drag with middle click.

There are a total of 7 programmable buttons: two on the left (where the thumb rests), two on the right (next to pinky), left click, right click, and the scroll wheel itself. There is a eigth button but this is used to switch between your pre-programmed DPI settings and not for use as a interface button.Steel Series Engine: http://steelseries.com/us/support/downloads

I use the Kensington trackball software that you can download on their site. There's an option, that when you click both the left and right buttons at the same time, to mimic the middle mouse button click, which functions as a scroll lock.

it has the same middle click function as most mice. i am able to map it within games so it should work

No it doesn't. None of the extra buttons work, so you can only use it like a "regular" mouse. That didn't stop me from buying it though :)

I really can't answer, since I use it on a Mac, which doesn't use middle click. Nice mouse though - very comfortable in the hand and easy to click.

It has the up and down and the middle clicks as well; I guess that makes three buttons.

No. You can R and L click. It doesnt have buttons, so it appears that you can't Click left or right but you most definately can.Its a pretty cool mouse! Also it doesnt use a scroll wheel, but rather you simply slide your finger forward or backward to scroll or side -to-side to shift the screen horizontally.

Middle mouse button click has a big delay!!!Test here: http://unixpapa.com/js/testmouse.htmlTry some middle button clicks with a "normal mouse" and then try with the Microsoft3500.You we'll see that with Microsoft3500 some clicks get lost.DO NOT BUY MICROSOFT MOUSE
